How to make a case for the remote control with your own hands
Plastic types of covers are easily made at home. Of course, you can put on an ordinary cellophane shell or use the packaging from the remote control, but for reliability it is better to make a plastic case. There is nothing difficult in the process. You’ll need:
- Soldering iron or iron.
- Ruler.
- Plastic office bag.
Measure the dimensions of the remote control and mark them on the package. Stepping back a centimeter from the edge of the file, start soldering according to the marked dimensions. After you need to put a cover on the remote control and hold a soldering iron on its edge, after pressing the end of the remote control with a ruler. If you do not have a soldering iron at home, then it is best to use an iron. In this case, you need to place the remote immediately in the corner of the package, so that it is approximately 2 cm from the top and bottom. Iron the edges with an iron, the temperature should be about 200 degrees. Extra edges can be cut off. This is where the production of the cover ends, when this one wears out, it will be easier to make the same one.
